The Patterson CW18A High Velocity Fan is a robust, industrial-grade solution designed to move substantial volumes of air in factory, warehouse, and staging environments. Built around a 17-inch, three-blade propeller housed in a high-impact polypropylene shell with heavy-gauge steel components, this fan delivers focused airflow via a patented Venturi-designed barrel and evident side air inlets. The design supports effective projection and entrainment of air to improve circulation across aisles, workstations, and pick modules, contributing to better cooling and ventilation in demanding spaces.
Key construction features include maintenance-free, direct-drive motors with sealed bearings that are totally enclosed, offering reliable operation with minimal upkeep. The model is available across multiple voltages (115V–460V) and offers several mounting and installation options to suit varied layouts. OSHA-compliant steel finger guards provide an added layer of safety, while the 12-foot power cord (115V only) adds convenient reach for installations away from outlets. Optional oscillator kits add flexibility for broader air distribution, and the 2-year warranty provides a documented period of coverage for the investment.
This particular unit is specified for a broad air throw (approximately 80 feet) and a generous coverage area (up to about 2,700 square feet), with performance figures such as 3/4 HP-equivalent power and a rated speed near 1,725 RPM. Given its 44-pound weight, it remains manageable for ceiling- or wall-mount configurations across eight mounting options, enabling customization to room geometry and workflow. When selecting this fan, consider motor voltage, mounting method, and whether an oscillator option aligns with your facility’s demand cycles and space constraints.
